Tomato Sauce and Poached Egg Tapas Style

This is one of those things whipped up from an ’empty’ fridge that turned out delicious – loosely inspired by traditional Spanish dish Huevos a la Flamenca. Not only is this tasty, it’s also a great way to clean the fridge!

Ingredients:

Egg

1/2 red onion, sliced thin

2 cloves garlic, sliced thin

1/2 zucchini, julienned

1/2 capsicum, finely diced

~100g of meat (bacon/chorizo/turkey breast/etc) cut long and thin

1/2 can of whole peeled tomatoes

1 tbsp paprika

1/2 tsp black pepper

1/2 tsp white pepper

salt to taste

2 tbsp olive oil (from the antipasto jar if possible!)

Instructions:

Sauté onions and garlic in a pan. Add meat, zucchini and capsicum. Continue to cook through. Add tomatoes, extra oil, spices, salt to taste. Simmer for 10 or so minutes while poaching an egg.
